Description:
A cute tan-ish (though the AD should mean Gray/Blue?) QDL I picked up at a thrift store. Its escapement was frozen and the keys were outgassed (both easily fixed) but otherwise nice machine.

I started collecting in late 2024 but I have caught the bug in a big way. I already have dozens of typewriters, mostly the older varieties, from as early as the 1880s though the 1920s, some as late as the late 50s/early 60s. Most I'm restoring as best as I can, but I'm having some "fun" with a few. I have started a YouTube channel where I can share my experience of these restoration/other projects at https://youtube.com/@DynamicallyTyped
